I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Verkada (San Mateo, CA) in May 2021
Interview
The interview process was relatively casual, I had the opportunity to meet 4 team members of varying titles where we took turns asking questions to get to know each other, our qualifications, and what they enjoyed about their current role. Overall, very positive and candid experience
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a recent deal/sales cycle where things didn't work out as planned
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Verkada (London, England) in Nov 2025
Interview
Very efficient and rapid interview process.
Step 1 - Screening call with HR
Step 2 - Call with Sales Manager
Step 3 - Call with Sales Operations to run through previous performance metrics
Step 4 (final) - In person interview at their office. Consists of a culture fit meeting and a mock discovery call with a prospect
Although I didn't get the offer, Jasmin from the HR team was very efficient and helpful throughout the whole process. She gave a very strong first impression of Verkada from the go.
The initial recruiter did a great job at selling the interview process and awesomeness of the people I would be speaking with. ...They all seemed to be busy with their minds up prior to the meeting. I understand it is a competitive position but it felt like an audition where the director already made up his mind
basic interview questions - had to drive down to do an interview with multiple people, it essentially took a day, just to not get the job. Felt like we could have done it remote.
